OUTLOOK: Price Signal Summary - Corrective Cycle In Bunds Intact For Now

Oct-29 12:06
  • In the FI space, Bund futures are unchanged and continue to trade closer to their recent lows. The move down that started on Oct 17 is considered corrective and this has allowed an overbought trend condition to unwind. Initial key support at 129.46, the 20-day EMA, has been breached. This exposes the 50-day EMA, currently at 129.10. For bulls, a reversal would refocus attention on the key resistance at 130.59, the Oct 17 high. First resistance is 130.07, Oct 24 high.
  • A bull cycle in Gilt futures remains intact and yesterday’s fresh cycle high reinforces current conditions. Note too that MA studies are in a bull-mode position, highlighting a dominant uptrend. Sights are the 94.00 handle next. A break of this level would pave the way for an extension towards 94.24, a 1.618 projection of the Sep 3 - 11 - 26 price swing. The contract is overbought, a pullback would allow this condition to unwind. Firm support to watch 92.41, the 20-day EMA.
